Description

This is a complete course about Java Multithreading. If you want to learn more about concurrency in Java, you are in the right place! This is the course for you!

In this course, you will learn all secrets and tricks about multithreading. You will see in practice how each feature works, with straight to the point examples, and no-frills. You will see with your own eyes how things work, rather than having to believe in my own words.

I spent my last 20 years in IT as a consultant and I can now deliver these concepts in the most effective way. I designed this course like a journey for you, and I filled it up with a lot of visual content, as learning shouldn't be boring. I believe in visual-learning and when you see something, you can hardly forget it.

After this course, you will be able to build your own multithreading applications with absolute confidence and you will be able to better understand someone else's code, being more aware of what is behind every technical choice. You will be able to develop more bug-free code and you will be able to improve performances with parallel computing. Every section is like a piece of a puzzle that at the end is going to build the big picture, which will give you more understanding and certainty.

This course is completely hands-on and filled with programming challenges. There are 28 projects that you can download, modify and try by yourself.

If you just know the basics about java, you are welcome, as I made things very simple for you. And if you are an expert, you are welcome too, as you will learn more advanced features and add the missing pieces .

Tools required:

  • A recent version of Eclipse. In the course I'm using the version 2020-06, but any recent version will work fine.

  • A recent version of Java. In the course I'm using Java 14, but any versions from Java 8 included onwards will work fine.

Extra things that come with this course:

  • 28 projects for Eclipse

  • Zip files for each project

  • GitHub links for each project (optional for who knows Git)

  • Quick reference documents, to review key concepts.

  • Plenty of quizzes.

  • Hands-on challenges.

  • Videos with plenty of images and diagrams to learn key concepts.

  • Plenty of screencasts with demonstrations.

Udemy Money back guarantee

I'm sure you will enjoy the course and you will learn a lot out of it. I guarantee I will do my best to help you get through it and get the most from it. But if, for any reasons, you feel otherwise or you change your mind: on each Udemy course there is a 30 day money-back guarantee! So, there is nothing to risk anyway!
